Fractal Charm: Space Filling Curves

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Viewers fill their minds with space-filling curves watching a video of animations that show examples of space-filling curves, such as the Peano curve and the "Flow Snake" curve. The video also illustrates how space-filling curves relate to fractals using the Koch snowflake.
